Despite what people here want to believe, Windows mobile OS is actually beginning to carve a nice little niche for itself and other handset manufacturers are now looking at it again.

But to think a Sony only OS would do well is ludicrous, even Samsung are wary of pushing their Tizen OS too quickly or hard. If sony ditched Android and went their own OS overniohgt then their phone sales would drop off a cliff. Just stop making Mobile phone Sony, I (and other shareholderd) will be very grateful.

 

The potential for success is there. As a shareholder, I want them to look at the mobile communications field as an area for growth. Its hard to look at sales figures from apple or Samsung and not have envy, especially considering the profit margins on iPhone are what... 300%? That's exactly the kind of market they should be stepping into, not coming out of. As a company that has some well designed hardware kits known for being durable, theres more incentive toward playing the game right now than not.

 

Once again, it would be foolish to create another OS at this point so I agree with you on that. The development would be too stressful for the fragilebstate they're in.
